Elite international British rower Lance Tredell came down to the studio and served up of his pre-competition meals. This dish is something he would have the night before a race, so he has the fuel to compete the following morning or afternoon...

...this is my pre-race, evening meal. So, the night before the race I’ll try and get this meal in as it’s nice and nutritious, so that if race-day nerves kick I know I’ll be OK because I’ve had a nice meal the night before and know I’m fully fueled.
